Switch from Unasyn tablets to Augmentin liquid for infections.
Your worry about your child not taking tablets is understandable. H. influenzae and Staphylococcus aureus often infect kids. Augmentin liquid treats these bacteria too. Since you have it at home, the liquid form may suit your son better than tablets. Follow your pediatrician's dosage guide carefully. Complete the full course to eliminate the germs. If new symptoms appear or you have doubts, promptly consult your pediatrician.
